You may be asking how am I to know their level?

I discovered a Secret for patients success while testing MatchMate, my first Memory Exercise Game. I had to throw out the rules andadjust the game to the level of person with dementia, in order for everyone to feel good and for me to see a smile. Sometimes that is starting with 3 cards, instructions with memory exercise games.

I have seen frustration when playing with too many cards and you want to avoid that. The end result, they do not want to play PERIOD.

I developed these memory exercise games to be used as dementia activities and memory activities; for your loved one to enjoy and not become frustrated. If they don’t want to play cards, talk about the great pictures triggering emotions and memories.

Many Alzheimer’s activities, dementia activities, puzzles and card games are too difficult for those with dementia and special needs. These Memory Games were developed for the elderly, Alzheimer’s and seniors with dementia by Memory Jogging Puzzles in 2008.

{The nursing home is in the process of changing her medicine so I have not been able to work with her with all the products I purchased.

However, the song book has given her pleasure and we enjoy singing the songs together. You were correct in advising me to go with the six piece puzzle. She is 96 and I hope to give her some peaceful moments with your products.

I only wish I had been aware of your products before her condition became so critical. She does not know who I am but knows I care about her. Your products also help me in a very difficult time. I am able to sing songs she remembers, even with her eyes closed. She will open them briefly and look at the pictures. I am able to talk about the pictures even when her eyes are closed. I hope to do the same with the matching cards. Thank you again for developing products for people in her condition. Because of your products, I still have short periods of time that we can communicate about things she can understand. Thank you}

Dear Barbara,

I am glad you enjoy singing the songs and talking about the pictures. She may not be able to respond but I’m sure you are giving her peace and comfort. She may not recognize your face or name and thats okay. I personally feel, your touch and voice give her a wonderful feeling of comfort and joy. She knows you are someone who loves her very much and not a stranger… dry your tears.

You are doing much more than you realize and I am grateful to be apart of it. Thank you for taking the time and sharing. takeCare of yourself. karen
